Building Bridges – Supporting Patients and Each Other
This year we explore a renewed focus on research and innovation, while taking time to discuss the importance of patient-centric care; as well as the personal and professional challenges faced in urogynaecology. We are also proud to announce two international keynote speakers as part of this year’s event: Dr Aparna Hegde, who has been lauded as the maternal health champion among Fortune’s 50 greatest global leaders of 2020, as well as Professor Bruno Deval - a key opinion leader in female pelvic floor disorders and laparoscopic surgery. Scheduled to be held from the 18-21 September 2024, this year’s event will provide delegates the opportunity to interact with colleagues, international keynote speakers and industry intimately during both pre-meeting workshops and plenary conference at the W Brisbane. Delegates will also be delighted to experience our ever fabulous gala dinner at The Calile - named The Best Hotel in Oceania for 2023. So mark your calendars, and save these dates for the premier urogynaecological event in 2024. TO VISIT THIS YEAR'S PROGRAM CLICK HERE CLICK HERE TO REGISTER
